Private spaces in Koru lounges

I see the other thread is closed but wish to offer a counterpoint.

1 the conversations people have in public, airports and on planes, astound me.

2. Koru lounges used to have spaces where you could go to make a private phone call. If I needed to make a private call or a live radio interview I would go there (it happened). On the south side of Wellington lounge, for example, there was a small office with table and three seats and also a tiny booth. Both with a door. Both ideal. Both long gone. Which is a pity.

The office carrels are not private. I have used an empty childrens' play space but that was luck.

Isn't the AKL & WLG Koru clubs reasonable for most leaks to the media in New Zealand? it amazes me the topics you will some time over hear even at the bar fridge in the lounge.

I also liked using the booths. The problem was they were very rarely used so taking up valuable real estate for not much benefit.

Christchurch International still has a phone booth, to my surprise.

Chch International this morning I had to make a couple of calls. Business area was empty, and quiet. Perfect space for making calls not in the middle of the lounge.
Unlike everyone else.
Haha.
Safe travels.
